No title, no marriage? Do you think I'm some kind of lapdog?

"Execute immediately?"

"Should we execute it immediately?"

Su Chuang was stunned when he heard this. So ruthless?

It seems someone must have spoken to the Emperor, otherwise he wouldn't have been summoned to the palace at this critical juncture.

"My lord, I obey your order."

He dared not resist and could only agree, guessing in his heart that it was most likely related to Yue Xinyang.

After all, when he was on the platform, he had glimpsed a memorial in the latter's sleeve.

"Well... let's go then, so as not to keep the Emperor waiting."

The little angel pinched her pinky finger and said in a coquettish manner.

"Okay, okay..."

Su Chuang accepted the imperial edict and walked towards the palace with the little angel.

But he suddenly realized that although this little angel had a fair complexion and no beard, his voice was high-pitched.

But his gait carried the steadiness of a martial artist.

This raises suspicion!

"Please wait, sir."

"Your Majesty's sudden summons has filled me with trepidation."

"May I ask, Your Excellency, was ambergris or styrax incense burning in His Majesty's study today?"

Suddenly, Su Chuang forced out his usual slightly ingratiating smile and asked the little angel.

"This... is naturally ambergris. Your Highness, please hurry, don't keep His Majesty waiting."

The young eunuch was taken aback; he hadn't expected Su Chuang to ask such a question.

Therefore, a barely perceptible hint of panic flashed in his eyes, and then he said in a high-pitched voice.

"Oh?"

"Let me see if the imperial edict has any ambergris fragrance on it..."

Su Chuang's smile remained unchanged, but his gaze swept towards the scroll of the imperial edict in his hand.

Upon hearing this, the little angel's expression completely changed. No longer concealing her emotions, she shrieked:

"How dare you, Su Chuang! Question the imperial edict?! Seize him!"

The four guards drew their swords suddenly, but Su Chuang was faster than them!

Instead of moving forward, he grabbed the little angel's arm and pulled her back quickly.

at the same time!

"Yue Fei is here!"

Amidst a thunderous roar, the fierce-looking man with a resolute face emerged from the alleyway, his long spear flashing like lightning, aiming straight for the throat of the nearest guard.

The battle erupted instantly.

"drink!"

Yue Fei shouted, "This is my first battle after leaving the mountain, I must perform well!"

His eyes were sharp as he brandished the Liquan Spear, instantly stabbing down one man and sweeping away another.

They were all lifeless.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Then, four men in black, carrying short crossbows, suddenly appeared on the rooftops on both sides!

This is the second trap, the real killing move!

"You really think highly of me!"

The crossbow bolts were not aimed at Yang Zaixing, but at Su Chuang!

The little angel grinned maliciously, but was suddenly pulled hard by Su Chuang and used as a human shield!

"Pfft!"

Two poisoned arrows pierced the little angel's back. He screamed and instantly vomited black blood.

"Rooftop! Two people to the southeast!"

Su Chuang roared, his observational skills were astonishing!

"Chirp!"

Upon hearing this, Yue Fei did not hesitate and threw his spear like a meteor!

At the same time, he pushed off the ground and lunged at the other side of the roof!

His spear pierced the chest of a crossbowman.

The two people on the other roof frantically turned their crossbows around, but it was too late.

Yue Fei's iron fist slammed down like a hammer!

Seize the crossbow and break its neck!

His movements were ruthless and decisive, without any hesitation.

Seeing that things were not going well, the last crossbowman turned to flee.

Su Chuang, however, had already picked up the crossbow he had taken from the ground and aimed to fire.

Boom!

The crossbow bolt left the bowstring and accurately pierced the crossbowman's back, killing him instantly!

The battle ended in a dozen or so breaths.

Yue Fei's gaze towards Su Chuang held a hint of surprise and admiration:

"Your Highness... your insight and methods are truly admirable!"

The lightning-fast judgment just now, and even that final crossbow strike, were things that a pampered, good-for-nothing prince could never have done.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~"

Su Chuang did not answer, but simply waved his hand.

He was now panting heavily and his face was pale.

The main problem is that this body's physical condition is too poor; just this burst of energy has already left it feeling exhausted.

"ah--!"

Just as Su Chuang was resting, a short scream came from the street corner.

He looked up and saw Ye Qingyue covering her mouth with her hand, her beautiful eyes wide open, staring at the blood-dripping knife in her hand.

"Hehehe..."

Yue Xinyang, who was standing to the side, let out a sinister laugh!

"Su Chuang, Su Chuang, you've truly gone mad! To kill an angel in the street—that's a crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations of your family!"

Then Ye Qingyue seemed to see Su Chuang being escorted to the execution ground and his entire family being executed, and immediately burst into laughter.

In this way, the humiliation she suffered at her wedding today can be covered up.

But this smugness lasted only a moment.

When she met Su Chuang's gaze as he turned around, the icy, emotionless chill made her feel as if she had fallen into an ice cave.

What alarmed her even more was that Su Chuang's eyes remained calm throughout, as if to say that it was just killing someone.

"Su...Su Chuang...you...you killed someone!"

"You even killed an angel! You killed an angel in the capital, right under the emperor's nose!"

Ye Qingyue reminded Su Chuang that she wanted to see the panic and fear in his eyes.

"hehe…"

Su Chuang simply smiled faintly and ignored it.

Instead, he got up and examined the body of the murderer.

Among them, the little angel was found to have indeed been castrated, but judging from the degree of healing of the incision, it was obviously new.

"They really went all out."

He said coldly, then examined the guard's sword, only to find the character "Xiao" on the hilt.

Then, he picked up the fallen "imperial edict" and unfolded it.

The so-called imperial seal inside was somewhat blurry, and the format was quite different from what I remembered.

"Shoddy work."

He sneered, but his eyes were even colder. No wonder he dared not give him the imperial edict.

"It seems someone was too lazy to even bother with a meticulous forgery. Were they certain I was going to die and no one would bother to investigate? Or... was there just enough time?"

Su Chuang pondered, muttering to himself.

He never expected that he would be caught up in a huge and complicated conspiracy as soon as he transmigrated!

"Su Chuang!"

She called out to Su Chuang, but he ignored her, so she raised her voice, trying to regain a sense of control.

"From this day forward, we are completely estranged! We have no further connection whatsoever! You'd better not tell anyone you know me!"

"I'm going to report you! I'll report you for committing murder in the street, you killing angel! Just wait to be punished by the imperial court!"

Finally, she took a deep breath, trying to make her tone sound righteous and resolute.

"Report me?"

"Hehehe..."

Su Chuang finally spoke, his voice calm and even, yet carrying a chilling coldness.

"Miss Ye, please proceed. However, I must remind you that giving false testimony and falsely accusing the Crown Prince are, according to the law, equivalent to being guilty of the same crime."

He paused, a faint smile curving his lips, a smile that made Ye Qingyue's heart stop.

"Besides, how do you know that what I killed... was definitely an 'angel'?"

"Instead of false angels?"

These words struck Ye Qingyue like a thunderbolt, sending chills down her spine.

She suddenly looked at the eunuch's clothes on the ground, and then at the obviously problematic "imperial edict" in Su Chuang's hand.

"snort!"

"Qingyue, let's not argue with him here. The facts are right in front of us, how could he be wrong?"

Yue Xinyang held Ye Qingyue in his arms, speaking softly.

"hehe…"

Just after Su Chuang finished examining the body.

Another old eunuch dressed in formal eunuch attire, with a fair complexion, no beard, and a dignified demeanor.

Surrounded by a squad of imperial guards in gleaming armor, they were walking briskly towards them.

Su Chuang recognized him; he was Gui Gonggong, a true favorite of the emperor.

Gui Gonggong's gaze swept over the blood on the ground and lingered for a moment on Su Chuang's face.

Finally, he glanced almost imperceptibly at Ye Qingyue, whose face was deathly pale, before speaking in his unique, high-pitched voice with a courtly air:

"By imperial decree, the heir apparent of the Duke of Xin, Su Chuang, is summoned to an audience immediately!"

"No delays allowed!"

"Otherwise, you'll be demoted to a commoner!"
